In 1977 this remote British island in the South Atlantic, which had been host to such as Napoleon, Captain Bligh and Boer war prisoners was served for the first time by a dedicated vessel, the RMS St Helena, later referred to just as RMS. The author begins with an account of a typical voyage to St Helena and then goes on spotlighting representative individuals and groups who have travelled there since the island was first discovered 500 years ago
